It was testified that these wetbacks are entering the United States at the rate of 2 a minute. or nearly 1 million a year. Yet we do virtually nothing to stop them. I make these remarks because I wish it understood that this menace which we are facing. and which we are not making any real attempt to control is far more dangerous than any other form of immigration. and it cannot possibly be met by any provisions of the McCarranWalter Act. I think the appropriation which has been provided in this case is totally inadequate. It should be twice as large if we are to take really useful and effective steps to stem this evil influx and to prevent a real threat and a very great danger to the security of the United States. and to its economy.
